In following the tutorial on the main page, it reccomends that you burn a copy of the sys rescue cd first before extracting and then customizing the filesystem. I figure most people probably won't plan on using the non-customized cd in the future, and unless they have a cd-rw around, they'll be just using a cd-r for no purpose. Why not make it doable from a usb flash drive which nearly everybody has.

I am facing a similar problem. I have also started playing around with custom CDs by creating a bootable CD-ROM. For not having to burn several CDs for nothing I did my installation on USB stick. I got the CD thing extracted on a local partition of my developer computer. I have changed few things on my USB stick.. but most if it goes into the sysrcd file.

What is the big difference between the isolinux and the syslinux folder/files?I have also made some changes in the bootloader (under syslinux).Will I be able to burn this on CD and get it working with syslinux?I'll try to replace and rename my syslinux files in /customcd/isoroot and get the isogen done for the first.

PS: Where ist the sysresccd-custom located? I also call it from /mnt/custom/sbin but it does not seem to be there, is it? Is ist only a bash script?
